Description
This test case verifies functionality of Braille output in a graphical user environment (desktop) using a virtual Braille device. This allows to test the BRLTTY + Orca cooperation without the need to use physical Braille devices (which are rare and expensive).
Setup
- Install the pre-release version of Fedora that is to be tested on a bare metal or virtual machine, ensuring that BRLTTY is included in the installation.
- Install the "brltty-xw" package by running
sudo dnf install brltty-xwin the terminal.
How to test
- Power on the system and wait for it to boot up.
- Login to GNOME desktop.
- Start Orca (e.g. by pressing
Super+Alt+s). - From the terminal, run
brltty -b xw -A auth=none -eto open a virtual Braille display. - Open a simple application (e.g. a text editor).
- Arrange windows, so you can see both the content of the application and the virtual Braille display at the same time.
- Perform various operations (e.g. typing and editing text) and verify that updates are accurately reflected on the virtual Braille display.
Expected Results
- A window showing Braille and Latin letters should open after starting brltty.
- Braille output must accurately reflect the content of the application throughout the test.
